    I have a ton of old Pen/Paper drawings of Cities for my Campaign world (Probably around 10-20), some are huge, spanning 4 sheets of paper, like the one below, Quilmon, was drawn on 4 sheets of Scientific graph paper (The millimenter ones).

    Yeah, it was originally done on the Scientific sheets and then done in CC2 (about a good 30+ hours work)

    But, here is a version of Rul I just finished

    Try toning down the shadows and using a more natural green. Right now the shadows are so dark that it muddles the lines of the buildings. And the green, mostly just hurts my eyes. =)

    Lookin good though.

    Wow, very nice! The sheet effects in CC3 really allow for some great looking maps at all levels - overland, dungeon/floorplan and city.

    So are you looking forward to City Designer 3 as much as I am?

    Oh, I am salivating for it as we speak! One of the main reasons I am not really doing cities right now is I don't want to spend hours converting from one format to another.

    Ok, shadows have been muted, and the grass toned down as well (I didn;t really like the other color either.)

    So, here it is currently, though it will still be up for a change. It is just a single style I am trying of the same town.

    This is looking great! If you decide to tweak some more, some of the edges are still a bit sharp for me (ex: trees & text), and the ground color--while better than the earlier incarnation--is a tad too uniform, dropping the interest of the surrounding pattern (of course, don't overdo that either). But I really like the map as a whole!!

    Here is an updated image of the map. I like the look of 'White' buildings outlined with black, and find it is better to see the individual buildings.
